Dr. Philip Keiser initiated the inaugural AETC in Texas in the late 1990s, bringing the program to Parkland Hospital to provide training for health care providers working on HIV-related issues. In 2008, Dr. Keiser moved appointments to UTMB and developed UTMB into a AETC site. Since that time, UTMB has grown to provide HIV-related training to healthcare providers across the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and locally within Galveston, Brazoria, Matagorda, Chambers and Jefferson counties.
The faculty at AETC-UTMB, and colleagues throughout the UTMB medical system, care for thousands of HIV patients, and are active in a variety of implementation and research projects related to HIV in Texas, the United States and around the world. If you are interested in attending our regular trainings, collaborating on a special project, or receiving clinical mentorship in matters related to HIV, please contact us.
